Apple’s 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pros are the only laptops that Apple offers with OLED displays which Apple calls ‘Liquid Retina XDR’.
A recent report suggested that Apple is working on a 15-inch MacBook Air. As per that report, there are also plans for a smaller 12-inch MacBook. Apple’s M2 Pro and M2 Max chips are expected to go into mass production sometime later this year by TSMC and refreshed 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pros may arrive as early as next year.
Not with the current ipad Pros. You're talking about the previous (2022) 12.9" iPad Pro which did have Mini-LED while the 11" 2022 was "just" an LCD. They switched that this year so both the 11" and 13" have these n...
